This course explores feminist learning as an endless movement by centering the praxis, politics and poetics of collective knowledge production. How do one know what one knows? Who and what are served by that knowledge? How might a commitment to anti-coloniality and justice push one to imagine, make and move differently in relation to structures of violence that one seeks to transform? Students dive into these questions by engaging with over 25 years of organizing and co-creativity inspired by the Sangtin movement and Parakh Theater in India, and they make connections with these through embodied activities in the classroom. Prerequisite: SWG 150. Juniors and seniors only. Enrollment limited to 12. Instructor permission required.
